Indian heiress, investor and fashion designer Akshata Murty has an estimated net worth of $641 million (£529 million) as of 2023, according to The Times UK. This is a combined estimate along with her husband and British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. However, the couple's entire wealth is almost attributed to Murty, who owns a stake in Infosys, India’s second-largest IT firm. Co-founded by her father N.R. Narayana Murthy, Infosys is valued to be worth $73 billion, as per The Standard.

Murty owns a 0.93% stake in the publicly-traded tech company Infosys. Her stake amounts to approximately 39 million shares. The stake was worth an estimated $836 million approximately, (£690 million) as of last year, according to the Sunday Times Rich List 2022.

In 2023, Murty received approximately $16.3 million (£13.5 million) in dividends from Infosys, as per The Standard. Her latest payout was $8.2 million (£ 6.8 million) following a year of strong growth from Infosys, with the firm announcing an Rs 18 dividend to shareholders.

Murty's income from Infosys is a subject of controversy as well. Since she is an Indian citizen and a "non-domiciled UK resident," she is not required to pay income tax on money earned by ventures outside of Britain. Thus, despite her receiving millions in dividends she is not liable to pay any tax. However, Murty announced that she had decided to pay tax on her worldwide income in the UK.
